When Freya returned to the manor, it was already dark, but Antitina waited until this time after sending away the boy.
When she heard Freya's description, she knew what had happened in her heart, and she was a little surprised, thinking that it was such a coincidence. With her dexterity and wit, she immediately thought that the people caught by the lord might be the same group of criminals as Di'an met. She asked Freya to stay for a while, and then went back to the house to take them. Put on the shawl and the necklace without the pendant, and then set off to meet Brando.
When the two arrived at the hunter camp, the patrolling cavalry wasted two or three hours in vain, yet they still didn't ask a word from the cultists. They searched the hunter camp over and over again, and almost turned the bottom up, only to find a 16-carat black-covered "Code of All Things" and a wooden statue with ouroboros carved on it. The statue Obviously it is often used in various ceremonies. The surface has been polished smoothly, but it is wiped very clean without a trace of dirt. It is in sharp contrast with these dirty and unkempt desperadoes. As for the "Code of All Things", Ou Jin hurriedly threw it aside after taking a look in his hand. This is a banned book that the Temple of Flame has banned from reading and spreading. He seemed to be afraid that the book would come alive and bite him. Let him get into trouble.
However, his young people are more careful. They first opened the "Code of All Things" and turned a few pages to make sure there was nothing in it. Then they fumbled on the cover, and then opened the sword. The result was really called them. A thin piece of parchment was taken out from it, but it was a pity that there was nothing on the parchment. The patrol cavalry tried all kinds of methods-whether it was dripping the medicine brought by the developer or baking it with fire, Or put it under the moonlight-there is no way to make the text appear on the paper. Brando tried a few small magic tricks, but to no avail, he could only put it aside.
The young patrol cavalry were full of enthusiasm at first, and they were determined to behave in front of the favored Earl, but after a few hours, they couldn't help but yawn a little. Those cultists seem to be made of special materials. No matter how they tortured and wailed, but they didn’t say a single word. They even killed one of them to kill the monkeys. Even though the rest were shaking with fright, they still clenched. Yaguan did not open their mouths. Obviously, they were more afraid of the torture after death than death. These people had dedicated their souls to the devil and dusk. Once they opened their mouths and fell into hell, waiting for them would be worse than death.
After the gloomy Moya sank into the horizon from the mountains in the east, Tadisha, who only appeared in the autumn night sky, walked half of the journey. The stars from the north to the south changed, and there was almost only the last short period of time left at night. Everyone exhausted themselves, but they got nothing. Ou Jin couldn't help but looked at Brando a little apologetically, but Brando said it was OK. He was lucky, but this result was also expected. He looked at these young people who seemed to have frosted the eggplant. Although he knew that they were just compliments, he was still very satisfied. He planned to wait until dawn to search the camp for the last time. It was really not possible, so he wanted to find another way. , These people will always leave clues.
At this time, Antitina finally arrived at the camp, accompanied by Freya.
Miss Bingxue is smart. She saw a messy camp and the young people who patrolled the cavalry team who seemed to have not closed their eyes for at least a week. She knew that Lord Lord was tossing this way because of herself. Otherwise, why would he be with a group of small cultists? If he can't get through, he is not Braggs' sheriff, and the sheriff may not personally take care of these trivial matters. She bowed slightly to salute Brando, and then asked about the story that happened that night. She first glanced at the cultists, confirmed that she had never met them before, and then checked the camps one by one. The bits and pieces found in it, but when she heard Brando mention the blank parchment, she raised her head and said to Brando:
"Lord Lord, let Captain Eugene send these outlaws away first, as you have seen, they probably won't speak."
Brando took a look at his lady of the staff. After working together for a long time, Brando could hear some hidden meanings beyond the words, so he nodded.
If the patrol cavalry received a pardon, they quickly tied up the remaining living people with ropes-of course, the dead should also be tied up. Whether it is a vent or a corpse lying on the ground, it is always their credit, since this person is good to talk. The Lord Earl of has said that he would give them the credit, and they would naturally not be polite. Although they may not really need these credits, a cultist can say that he can exchange a lot of rewards, which is enough for them to splurge.
When the patrol cavalry were busy, Antitina pulled Brando and Freya aside and whispered: "Lord Lord, I think I know why they came."
Brando was startled slightly and looked at his assistant lady a little puzzled. Antitina glanced at him before telling them what Diane had encountered, and then she said: "Lord Lord still remember the will left by my father?"
Brando nodded.
"... Martha is here, I may die soon. If I die, someone who is lucky enough to see this suicide note, I would like to legally transfer all my belongings to this person. In addition, I have a secret My ancestral property, I would like to divide this wealth into three, one for this person, one for my wife, Saidi, and one for my daughter..."
Antitina recalled for a moment, and memorized the contents of the suicide note verbatim, as if she was reading: "If you see this suicide note who is interested in this wealth, please forward this suicide note and my tokens to me. Wife, and tell her'Dating at the Baden Ball', she will understand what I want to express."
At last she stopped, and it took a while to say in a little silence: "Finally, I'm sorry Saidi, May Master Martha punish me—"
Brando looked at Antitina, knowing that she would not do unnecessary things, waiting for her next, Antitina took a light breath: "My father was very struggling for a while when he was young. It was the first time I met my mother at a dance party. They quickly fell in love. At that time, they bought a mansion in the old town of Braggs, and the larger courtyard after I was born was in me. My father bought it after he made money. I think I understand where my father left his inheritance."
Brando laughed blankly. The lady of his staff was always so serious. At that time, he was short of money, so he valued the will left by Antitina’s father. But now there is more legacy left by Borg Nesson. For Tonigel, it was a drop in the bucket. The other party was just a little nobleman: "Antitina, since you remember where your father's relic is, you can find a way to find it, or as a memento. —" He suddenly stopped, looking at Antitina with some surprise: "You mean these people are going for your father's belongings?"
Antitina nodded slightly.
This can explain part of the problem, and only these low-level cultists care about this small amount of money. Maybe they got the news from somewhere and want to make a fortune. But they couldn’t explain the coveting of Tester and McGothek, or maybe they didn’t care about the same thing, but Brando looked at the two tied up deserters of the White-winged Cavalry. Gesk's relationship was obviously not a coincidence, and he told himself that his speculation was not correct.
It would be great if they could speak, but unfortunately this is impossible.
Antitina saw her lord furrow her brows deeply, and said softly: "Lord lord, that blank parchment, I think I might have a clue."
"Do you have a way?" Brando came back to his senses.
Antitina shook her head: "It's just a guess, you can confirm it by looking at it first."
The parchment was placed with the "Code of All Things" and was sandwiched between the pages of the book by the patrol cavalry. Brando asked a young man to bring the forbidden book. After receiving it, Antitina opened it and took out the parchment and spread it out. Ping, a clear look appeared in his eyes. She hesitated for a moment, and then hesitated to say to Brando: "Lord Lord, this is a letter. I think I can show the text on it, but... But I can do this job alone. NS?"
"A letter?" Brando was startled slightly. He looked at his assistant lady with some doubts in his heart, but he nodded.
"Thank you, Lord Lord." Antitina felt a little grateful, Brando didn't ask what she was going to do. It was a silent trust that made her feel satisfied and gratified in her heart. She retired from Brando, took the parchment to a wooden house, raised her hands around her neck, and took off the necklace hanging around her neck—the room at No.52 Gravedigger Avenue was still hanging on the necklace. The key to her—she spread the parchment paper on the ground with the necklace, then half-kneeled, bit her finger, and dripped blood on the necklace where the pendant was originally hung. At this time, a magical scene happened. The blood beads flowed down the necklace, as if floating in the air, outlining the outline of a crystal. This fictitious blood-colored crystal exuded a shimmer, and Antitina used it The light shone on that page of parchment, and words gradually appeared on the parchment.
Antitina looked at the words and let out a sigh. She waited until the blood on the necklace gradually dissipated, then put away the parchment, put the necklace on again, and carefully covered it with a shawl.
Brando waited for a short while until his lady of staff came out, she walked to him, and then gave him the parchment. "Success?" Brando asked, and Antitina nodded gently.
He glanced at each other carefully, thinking that his lady of staff might also have some little secrets, but Brando believed that she would never harm him, so he stopped asking more. Everyone Having his own privacy, he respects Antitina's choice. He unrolled the parchment, hurriedly scanned the first two paragraphs of text on it, and raised his eyebrows slightly.
There is a special purple text on the letter:
'Dear Palmed, my brother—
We have never been so close to the truth for a moment. The fragmented riddles finally gradually formed a pieced together picture, presented in front of me. I have properly kept the marshal's relics, and then I will set out to find the truth. , I believe that one day, you, me and everyone will be treated fairly. For thirty years, the nightmare-like sights that you and I have witnessed in that place circulate in my mind all the time, but to this day, I am still convinced that the choice we made that day was for the purpose of justice and selflessness, and soon , I will prove it.
Regarding the entrustment of the princess, I think the marshal may object, but there are some things we have to complete. You, I, and Charles have already agreed to keep this promise, and I can save part of the evidence by winning this honor. I am sure. It will become an honorary witness in the near future. In addition, I sealed a part of the fragments in the same place as part of my legacy to my descendants—because you and I both understand this, the cause we want to accomplish is full of unknowns and dangers, I think if one day I encounter misfortune , These puzzles can be preserved by my wife’s hands. By the way, you and I have not communicated with each other for many years. I forgot to tell you that I am married—my wife, Saidi, is the most beautiful girl in the world. I love her as much as I love myself, my parents, and The person I respect most in this world. If possible-I really hope you can meet her, you will love her, she is a quiet and gentle girl, knowledgeable, intelligent and restrained, sometimes I really hope she is the only princess in this world, and I am The knight who guarded her, but I was often outside and owed her too much, and I often felt very guilty about it.
Sadie and I already have the crystallization of love. That is my daughter. I named her Antitina, which means the flower of hope in Elvish language. My daughter looks a lot like my wife, but I believe she will become a knight like me in the future. She is very smart. She can see this since she was a child. I can see this in her eyes. I have only seen this kind of wisdom in the eyes of the princess in the past, and I am extremely convinced of this. I often think, if Lord Scott has a son, it would be suitable to marry Antitina to him. They will definitely be the brightest stars in Eruin's future, haha, you will definitely see here. I think I’m whimsical, but I’ve heard that Lord Scott is married just like me, and the object of the marriage contract is you. I have met the beautiful and gentle Lady Kadrigo, but I never know what they are. Place a foothold, otherwise I would definitely go to their wedding, think about it, what an honor it is.
Finally, I hope you will always be healthy and as strong as an ox. I hope that everything we do can be worthy of the marshal, worthy of the princess, and worthy of all those involved.
May the black pine be evergreen, may Eru endure forever; may the faith shine as before, and may the sword be as sharp as ever—
—Since the years of Shuiqin, I have missed your Hippard, your brother so much.'
Brando read the last sentence carefully before raising his head and looking at the lady of the staff in front of him. Antitina's face was a little red. Apparently she had read the entire letter before. She twisted her fingers awkwardly and replied in a low voice: "Please don't mind, Lord Lord, that's just a wishful thinking of my father. . You have another engagement with your Royal Highness, and Miss Roman...you...you just see a kind joke, I..."
Originally, this letter was really not a big deal. Anyone could see that it was just a letter from the family, and the content on it could be regarded as a joke between family members, but after all, it was revealed by her hand that it felt a little changed. After the taste, Antitina felt a little uneasy, Lord Lord would think that she had performed some small tricks in it. But in fact, bystanders knew that Brando didn't care about this at all. He was more concerned about the other content of this letter. He looked at Antitina and smiled bitterly: "Antitina, this is you Is the letter from my father correct?"
Antitina was startled and nodded subconsciously.
"Do you know Palmide?"
The lady of the staff shook her head this time, she frowned, showing a thoughtful look, but after a while, she still shook her head slightly.
"Your father's real name is Hippard, isn't it?" Brando asked. He hadn't heard of this name either. After all, this is a story from 40 to 50 years ago. The history in the game is just a brief introduction. That's it.
Antitina shivered slightly, and then nodded gently: "Perhaps it is so. He may have mentioned it to me once or twice. My father is from Westfah. In their place, there are usually children from children to adults. Two names. In private, between brothers and family members, the names that belonged to the childhood were often used as nicknames."
Brando thought for a while, and it seemed that this was indeed the case. He looked at the letter paper in his hand, and he already had a rough outline in his heart. It can be seen from the content of the letter that his grandfather may have a superior relationship with Antitina’s father. Judging from the title in the letter, he should be of the same generation as his father and Charles. That Pamid was obviously also one of these non-commissioned officers, and it was very likely that he was a confidant of his grandfather. This was far beyond his expectations. He had never thought that there would be such a connection between himself and Antitina. He had never believed in the fate of the future, but now he couldn't help but believe a little. , It is as if there is an invisible line connecting him and this lady of staff.
